clt says JQF is the obvious choice, wilson is farther away and busier

Pretty sure CLTFC flies out of Concord as well.

Let me throw some love out there for Joey Bearnes III. Dude was throwing some serious blocks out there last week. I like the cut of that man’s jib.

And the Appies think Concord is an insult. Silly Appies.

So hyped for this game, this may be the most important football game in our short history, this game is receiving a lot of publicity nationally, due in part to Biffs swagger and that he is coming home to play the hometown team, but with a victory in this game it just opens up our program to advancements in national recruiting, brand recognition, and overall exposure, the Marshall and Duke games were great for the fan base but winning this game on national TV benefits our program like no other game previously

ESPN giving us a 10% chance. I’d say that’s close to accurate based off what we know so far. This team beats us 8 or 9 times out of ten on their home field. But tonight’s our shot to get that 1 outta 10.

No clue really what to expect but let’s go Niners!

In less than a year’s time Biff has done something I wasn’t sure was going to happen again. He’s brought me back to the prime Lutz years we had. The only difference is the sport.

We recruited above our weight. The chip is back on the shoulder. There is a swagger to the team and coach. It’s us against the world. Tonight we go into a national tv game and I feel like we can win it against a big dog.

Regardless of the outcome, thanks to Biff! Now, let’s go punch them in the mouth.

I don’t think we need to win the game for this to be a net positive for the program. We just need to be competitive and look like we belong on the same field.

At a real football geek level just beating the point spread would be a win but I think we need to do better than that for the normies to appreciate us.

I think we can do it.

I agree totally. It would also help if we manage to have a lead late in the game (gets more eyeballs to change the channel) and/or make a couple if big plays that go viral like an INT return or something else Top Ten worthy. Clearly a win would be ideal, but looking like we belong is about more than the score to me but also if we display that gritty defense and/or some explosive offense for all to see!!!

In the uneducated eyes of the nation, if we win this game or come close, Biff becomes an instant legend.
Otherwise, he becomes just an oddball coach at a minor program. Before replying, please take note of the word “uneducated”

Anyone know if we can expect to see Larson in the kicking game? Was looking forward to having what seems to be a more reliable kicker.
